Sorry if this subject has been beaten to death, but I could not find any relevant information on this site or elsewhere.
I went looking for a kit to replace the mechanical fan with dual electrics. I assumed it would be a simple case of finding a set of fans/shrouds that would fit my radiator and would come with the requisite brackets, wiring and components to get everything working. Man was I wrong. I found many, many types of fans, many, many wiring harnesses, but rarely a fan/harness combo that would be a "direct-fit" for my El Camino. The best I could find was a BeCool system from Summit, but that's a $1500 kit (includes radiator which I don't really need; sweet set-up though).
I did some searching on this site, and I see some people are scavenging parts from other makes/models and adapting them to their car. I'll be honest and say I don't have that type of skills for that sort of procedure. Isn't there an under $500 kit out there that bolts on (or with some minor modifications) to my existing radiator and comes with the correct wiring harness? Or I'm I looking in the wrong places and over-thinking this whole process? :???:
